1 - TYSON KIDD vs. WADE BARRETT

Slow start as they feel each other out. Kidd foolishly volunteers for a test of strength against Barrett, and is forced to fight his way up from a bridge. Barrett comes back with kicks and a wristlock. Barrett catches Kidd's trademark kick from the apron to gain decisive control of the match.

[Commercial Break]

Barrett with control out of the break, but Kidd puts up a nasty comeback, including a leg-whip of sorts through the ropes. Kidd has Barrett's head hanging through the ropes, and does a slingshot dropkick to Barrett's head, very unique. Barrett with a quick clothesline to send Kidd ringside. Barrett wants a bog boot but Kidd dodges and Barrett gets hungup on the barrier. Kidd turns the tables on Barrett. Kidd wants the springboard elbow, so Barrett puts his feet up. Kidd sees the feet, lands on his own feet, and transitions right into a Sharpshooter. Barrett barely makes it to the ropes. Kidd gets caught by Barrett, and Barrett follows with the Souvenir for the win.

WINNER: Wade Barrett in 7:45. Top-flight match, one of Barrett's best. Like last week, the booking makes no sense, but it was great to see Tyson Kidd in a decent-length match, and to see Wade Barrett easily step up to the challenge to put on an excellent match.

2 - U.S. champion ANTONIO CESARO vs. JUSTIN GABRIEL - non-title match

The crowd is screaming "U.S.A.!" at the beginning of the match. I guess they support the ref with that chant? Rapid back-and-forth wrestling. Gabriel tries a slingshot crossbody to Cesaro on the outside, but Cesaro catches him and transitions to a powerslam instead.

[Commercial Break]

Cesaro is dominating Gabriel. Cesaro's offense gets a good series of two counts after high impact offense. Gabriel finally mounts some offense. Springboard moonsault gets a nearfall for Gabriel. There's a quick sequence of counters and reversals and Cesaro needs to get a foot on the ropes to avoid a loss. Gabriel goes to the top but Cesaro knocks him down. Cesaro picks him off the ropes and plants Gabriel with the Neutralizer for the win.

WINNER: Antonio Cesaro in 7:00. Another outstanding match. Between this match and the previous one, I really hope that I am looking at future WWE PPV line-ups.
